Great stay in Nara

Kind staff, phenomenal location, and beautiful room! It’s located a short walk away from main shopping streets as well as Nara Park. It did not bother me however it’s worth mentioning that there are multiple bathrooms to share between the guests and the walls are very thin so sounds other make can be heard easily. However, when next in Nara, I will certainly stay here again!

Various options for different type of travelers. We got a lovely room that overlooked the front yard. The manager was very friendly and it felt somewhat like staying at a friend's place. The property is accessible on foot or by buses as it is on the main street as the Kintetsu train station. Overall great place

ゲストハウスてますが，ツインルームを利用しました。土曜宿泊なのに、ツインで7000円を切る価格。 ホテル価格高騰で、周辺ホテルは一万円台後半の価格帯ですので、助かりました。ツインルームは道路に面していて車の騒音があるのでと、耳栓も用意してくれてました。私は人の話し声は，気になりますが、車の騒音は気にならないタイプなので、耳栓なしでも、睡眠には影響はありませんでした。ゲストハウスでしたが、大きなふわふわバスタオルが無料貸し出しでした。

奈良を終始感じていたい方は是非

古い木造よ日本家屋ですが、隅々まで手入れが届るので、古さがとても良い味になっています。 私は奈良の空気感を宿でも感じていたかったので、遊山ゲストハウスは最善でした。 オーナーさんはとても気さくな方で、教えて頂いたご飯は絶品でした。手作りの地図を頂くのもお忘れなく。ローカル情報満載です。 朝、顔を洗いに渡り廊下に出た時の涼やかで心地よい奈良の朝を忘れられません。
